Ep. 65 Our human tendency is to be uncomfortable with empty space. An empty house, we want to fill with furniture. Empty bellies we want to fill with food. Empty calendars we want to fill with activity. Listen to the podcast to learn the POWER of EMPTY SPACE.
We live crowded lives, then wonder why we aren’t getting what we want most. Magic happens when we leave space in our lives for new and better things to come. The abundance we seek is abundance that overflows but also leaves room for more abundance. Abundance that is at once overflowing, but uncrowded. Abundance of everything needed with room for more of what may come.

Ep. 62 How do you define spirit and spirituality? The March 16, 2020 headline of the Wall Street Journal reads “Americans Hit Pause Button on Life.” Due to the coronavirus pandemic, America has shutdown its routines and activities: school, work, concerts, sports, worship, and gatherings. We are experiencing an unusual quiet.
In the midst of this unplanned pause, my church happens to be commemorating the 200th anniversary of “The First Vision,” the origin event that resulted in the formation of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Today’s podcast discusses how spiritual encounters result most often from moments of quiet and solitude. Is the mandatory “shut-down” an opportunity for us to reboot our lives and to reconnect with spirit?

Ep. 60 Do you make choices or decisions?
A choice is making a selection between a predetermined set of options. For example, what to wear from your closet or what to order from a menu. A decision is a determination of how you want your life to be. For example, do I want to wear clothes? Will I eat at restaurants? Will I eat at all or go on a hunger strike?
Decisions determine choices.
Often we get stuck on the level of making choices, like choosing a paint color, and forget we have the power to create the life we want by focussing on decisions like What kind of house do I want to live in?
Listen to the podcast to learn more about making choices or decisions.
